The moment a Robinson helicopter collides with a radio tower in Houston. There were three adults and a child in the cabin, all of whom died.

    "The lighting on the radio tower is believed to have been malfunctioning for several days prior to the crash. The Federal Aviation Administration issued a notice Thursday indicating the tower’s lights were deemed “unserviceable” until the end of the month.

    FAA guidelines state towers over 200 feet above ground level “should typically be marked and/or lighted,” and any outages in tower lighting “should be addressed as quickly as possible,” as outlined in a 2020 publication.

    Towers and their guy wires – which are used to stabilize a structure – present a particular danger to helicopters, which usually operate at low altitudes, and can be difficult for pilots to spot at night.

    Video footage of the crash shows at least one flashing light at the top of the tower, but the remainder of the structure appears unlit."

    hmm. they know, but somewhat indicate that the whole tower should have been lit. I'm curious to know if you miss that lone light and then fly well under its level, can results to this.

    All news outlets here in Houston say the light wasn't working and that's why it happened. Now why would they all be lying as the video clearly shows the light is operational. See something, say something.

    This is a test of the emergency broadcast system. This is only a test. If this were a real emergency......wait, this isn't a test.
